I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 5 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
All of us that use Ecency are well aware of the recent update that broke a whole bunch of things, rendering the website only partially functional. While this situation has certainly improved, the fact that such a large update was pushed to the release site without far more thorough testing first, strikes me as very odd indeed. I've been adapting by using the Ecency Android app, along with Engage and Hive Inbox, to do my daily Hive tasks, and of course catching up on my notifications. Although I'm grateful that I had backup ways to get things done, this sort of thing shouldn't have happened in the first place.
Very thankfully, last night learned about a backup website for Ecency that hosts the older, and fully-functional version of the site, https://v3.ecency.com. What's so curious about this is that it's almost like the Ecency team is doing their beta testing on the main site, while what should be their beta-testing site is actually the previous functional one. Regardless of the peculiarity of this, at least there is a version of the site that does still work fully. As such, I'll be using that until the main site is entirely fixed and functioning as it should.
So I now have two sites each for both PeakD, the regular release site and the beta site, https://beta.peakd.com, and the regular and backup site for Ecency, too. As I say all the time, redundancy, and backup ways to do things on Hive, as in life, is a very good thing indeed.
Today, for first time in quite a long time, I'm going off-property for Sunday Funday, down to the coast around Kehena and the Seaview Lawn, with Zai, Lizzie, and Soozi, at their invitation. In the last two years I've only gone out for Sunday Funday one time, and that was last year, due in part to my broken heart, and because I've had very little tolerance for the increasing nonsense and stupidity that has been unfolding in regular society over the last few years. It's been so long, however, that getting outside the energy of GaiaYoga Gardens, and going to perhaps do fun things with people, does sound like a very good idea to me, even though I do have a fair bit of hesitation about it, in part because I need to make sure that I'm still able to get all my Hive necessities done.
I'm in the car now, heading out on our jungle road, en route to the coast. As soon as I finish this post, I'll get through my usual important Hive tasks, and then my time will be free to hang out with people, and hopefully enjoy myself a little. There's talk of going to the Pohoiki hot ponds too, so that might be on the itinerary as well. That's another place to which I haven't been in ages. Well see how it goes. I'll let you know in my post tomorrow!
It's now just before 12:15PM, so a great time to end this post, so that I can get to my few important Hive tasks, before focusing on my Sunday-Funday day. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until my Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress probably tomorrow morning, and the next expression of this post tomorrow afternoon! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
2024 Life Goals
1.) Heal my broken heart, reignite my heart sun, and embody a solid, healthy masculine, allowing my electric fire to shine bright, no matter what others, especially women, say or do.
2.) Bring myself and my life back into balance, integration, and wholeness.
3.) Do regular (naked) integral practices again, alone or with others.
4.) Dance regularly again.
5.) Work with natural entheogens (mushrooms, ganja, ayahuasca), with punctuated regularity, as a part of my healing process again.
6.) Get, and keep, regular deep, integral energy-body-tantric work healing sessions for women flowing again.
7.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.
8.) Make my plant nursery beautiful again.
9.) Live as an integral part of a juicy heart-resonant soul tribe community, with deep, coherent mutual and shared passion, purpose, mission, love, warmth, care, sweetness, reverence, respect, aliveness, admiration, excitement, enjoyment, playfulness, work, fun, laughter, attraction, and all-level connections and relationships.
10.) Make love with the woman, or the women, that I love, every day, as a sacred devotional practice.
11.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.
